November and early December sneaker watch for Nikes, Jordans, and Adidas.

Many up-and-coming sneaker drops are entering with much anticipation. A few notable sneaker drops are the Air Jordan 1 (Lost and Found) Chicago, Nike Dunk Low SB ‘Orange Lobster’, and the We The Best x Air Jordan 5 ‘Crimson Bliss’ which is a collaboration with DJ Khaled. This variation of the Air Jordan 1 Chicago page homage to Mom and Pop sneaker stores which were popular between the mid-80s and early 2000s. The shoes display a sense of aging, via cracked black paint along the upper.

When asked about this controversial decision, Alejandro Morales (Sneaker of Choice: Nike Dunk, Georgetown) said “I expected the collar to be all black, nice, and crisp. It makes me not like the shoes as much.”

The release will be online via select retailers and the Nike SNKRS app on November 19th and select retailers. 

News on upcoming Adidas Yeezy drops is very limited, at the moment, as the Yeezy brand has officially ended its contract with Adidas. 

Local student sneaker head Brett Topete (Sneaker of Choice: Air Jordan 1 Hyper Royal), when asked if he will continue to purchase Adidas’ Yeezy models, detached from Yeezy brand, said “personally I won’t but, if it has resale value I will; In order to resell it.”

The highly-anticipated A Ma Manière Jordan 4, has recently released, on November 17. The release had seen online wait times of up to 45 minutes, for some users. A Ma Manière bot protection weeded out online item purchasing robots in checkout line. Although A Ma Manière owns a fairly strong bot protection system, however, some user were still left unsatisfied with their experience; Due to factors of wait times and the very limited shoe quantity.

Lucky, another drop on the Nike SNKRS app is scheduled for November 23rd. Sadly, however, the SNKRS app has had several similar complaints have been said about the SNKRS app as well. Good luck to everyone at their future drop raffles.
